Career / Re: The Biggest Mistake I See On Resumes - Google Head Of HR by Opetech(m): 11:10pm On Sep 18, 2014 |
You need to read this. It's a comment from the source of the article. First, articles virtually identical to this one have appeared dozens and dozens of times here on LinkedIn and elsewhere on the Internet . If you want to get noticed , why not write about a fresh topic or , at the very least, take a different angle on this topic to differentiate it ? Second , every person on LinkedIn could compile a list of annoying things that happen with frustrating regularity on their jobs . Maybe other HR people cheer these resume perfection articles , but to everyone else it sounds like incessant whining . The millionth article complaining about typos in resumes ( this article might be a candidate for that title ) isn ' t going to fix the problem. People don ' t purposefully put typos in resumes just to annoy HR people ( although it ' s a temptation ) . It ' s a mistake . It happens . Deal with it . Third , when you reject candidates for violating crazy rules, who are you hurting ? The candidates will probably find jobs somewhere . You ' re just arbitrarily removing potentially qualified candidates from consideration by your company for nonsensical reasons . Some of those candidates might turn out to be star performers who add great value to your competitors . Does a software engineer need perfect grammar and spelling to do his /her job? When that candidate develops a billion dollar product for your competitors are you going to feel proud for rejecting them in the name of resume perfection? Your job is to hire the best available talent for your company . It ' s not about finding candidates that don ' t annoy you. Lastly , and I do agree lying is a bad thing , when you invent a system that automatically rejects resumes for lacking every keyword you desire , aren ' t you setting up scenario to promote lying ? Isn' t it equally dishonest for a company to demand more skills than is necessary to reasonably qualify for any given position ? 3 Likes |
